Steve, you might want to take a look at the recently GPLed
Source-Navigator IDE. Python support was recently added by
a net contributor. It works for most things but from what
I understand it sounds like a bit more work on Xref support
is needed. You might want to spend your time
improving the Python support in Source-Navigator instead
of writing your own from scratch.
